I consider myself very fortunate indeed to have created a character which has captured the imagination and enthusiasm of so many children worldwide. They are my family, and Spot belongs to them all.

I am very observant of people's character.

And I have to consider myself fortunate, because there are plenty of writers who spend most of a lifetime looking for that certain something without ever finding it.

I've been so fortunate in that people respond to what I do.

I'd like to be known for my character.

If you're lucky, and not a lot of actors are these days, you get the chance to create a character.

I kind of embarked on a fruitless search to find information about my character, Frederick Aiken. And it was fruitless, unfortunately, because there's so little about him.

I do have to say I have been very fortunate.
